@Wahaha360 I just want to confirm, when you say two-tone, do you mean the original gray on silver? I heard that you might be doing just silver/black because the gray finish was too expensive.

Lol. How do you feel about it?
People pay for convenience, that's what I'm saying. Managing everything in a SFF build (making sure parts fit, cable management, cooling, etc.) is a lot harder than plugging two things into a PCIe slot and then some short cables to power it and then sliding the entire thing in.Do you see the general public spending $2.5k in a system that isn't a lot smaller than a small pc but is a lot less powerful and a lot less upgradeable? Because I don't.
10L for "that" and at "that" price makes no sense whatsoever.
PD: and this is not to say that such a NUC is pointless, but such an integrated system is.
Space Gray or Two Tone Space Gray & Silver will be a made to order for ~$300-$350 depending on how close to Apple Macbooks.
What make it so expensive, compared to default black/silver?
Never heard of gaming laptop? ?Do you see the general public spending $2.5k in a system that isn't a lot smaller than a small pc but is a lot less powerful and a lot less upgradeable? Because I don't.

@Wahaha360 Will the T1 include dust filters for the bottom fans?

Yeah. They're called Mac Mini/Pro owners.
i think a silver version will be very nice .Are there plans for a purely silver version as well? I haven't seen it mentioned in the last few pages.

I guess more time for OptimumTech review and web dev.

I suppose this gives more time for Optimumtech review.

OptimumTech also need time to review, so it's likely the better decision to delay the preorder.
Yea, they will pay for anything with apple logo, just like stand for 1k USD.
Or $400 for a set of caster wheels.
Meanwhile in Not-Crazy-Town:
RILL
Caster, gray, 2"
$10.00/4 pack
It is anodized first then a special proprietary coating. The setup cost is quite high, only one supplier willing to do it.
To make any regular dark grey is slightly more expensive than Black or Silver, but the fingerprint resistance is inferior and feel is also inferior, it’s not as smooth to the touch.
If you ever owned one of the many Apple Space Gray like dongles, a Taobao case, they are not as smooth, the sandblasting not as consistent.
Here's backup on thatWell, according to recent comments on YouTube, seems like OptimumTech definitely do NOT have a T1 to review.
@Wahaha360 from your posts it sounded like he already had a T1 prototype or something, I guess I was wrong lol.
Hope he receives his review unit before pre-orders are open.
